GREAT Less OF IJFE.-A despatch fron t Louis,28th ult.to the B:ltimore Sun, gives he subjoined particulars of another terrible steamboat disaster: A frightful steamboat accident took place this evening. The steamer St. Louis col lapsed two flues, three miles below the city, at quarantine. A frightful scene ensured the shrieks of the wounded and dying were inost heart-rending. From all the information which could be gatheied in the confusion, it appears, that 25 live.q, were lost, and 40 persons wounded. Abont half the number of persons sealed will ertainly die. The sufflerers. mostly were leek passengers. CAINE-T MEETIX.-The Baltimore Sun of Friday says th-tt a despatch from Wash agton, announees that a Cabinet Council was held on Wedncsday, at which it was re .olved to hold the Cuban authorities respon Ale for any treatment the American rest lents may. receive. A special messenger i to be sent out there forthwi i from the State )epartment, to look after the interests of American citizens. OBITUA RY. Dara-ree this lire, at his residence, in this owo rdyevnnt duio Capt The deceasedthad e for about two weeks somcwhat indisposed. bit a day or two ibe~fore his death seemued better, and was well enough, in company wvith a friend, to visit his saw miill, about ten miles fromt honme. He returned late in the afternoon, and shortly after, tea, was suddenly s tricken down by the' hand of death. He diedl of an aff'ection or the heart. Captain AnnISoN was born within a few miles of this town on the 1st April 1788, and was raised in the District. His rather, Mr. .Joscrn AnDISON, died whilst his son was an infant, andi htis early training was left to, his pious mother, whose maiden name wasilaoirs, a lady or strong muind and excellent qualities. The meants of the fatmily denied to the son any thing more thana mere conmmon English education, a result to be lamented, for if his high naturaul talents lad been improved by education, there is little risk in say tng that he would have mtade a strong and deep titpressiotn on the age in whieh he lived. With his limited education howiever, improved by read imig and close observation, Capt. ADDISON ren dered himiself a prominent man and highly ttseful eitizen. His mind, was eminently practical and tis qality was signally exhibited in all htis aflitirs. hlis mtemtory was unusually retentive, andi to a .trong and vigorous judgment he mylted..-great iratmtess and ettergy. During the War of 1812, through the kind interference of the late Mr. CALInoes, he ob tained thte commission of 1st Lieueteantt in te U. S. Armty; was stationed for a year or mtore with his Regimtent near Chatrle'ston, attd for th. greater part of that time, acted as Adjuttatnt of the Regimtent. In thte armty hte contmatinded the highest resipect andi confidence. Hie was asso tlated wit many;.Ofiiers front this State, in the samne Regiment, who are knowi to have enter taned the strongest attachmnent for htinm. The late Capt.'Guzne BL-rLCIL, the late Capt. H1sR TAviLO attdthe H~on. JIAMes IAMLaTOS, of this State, were in the army with htim aintdiwere htis wartm friends. Simon after lie left the armty Capt. ADDIsoN married the excellent lady who has sur vived himt; thtey had four children, three of whom are livings For miore than thirty years the deceased was one of the. Magistrates of the District, and no, nan ever fulfilled the duties: of his office, with nore-honesty and fidelity ; whilst he exercised its mowers with tirnmness, in no instance didi he -ever mecourage~ litigation, or tuse his of115e for the prtr oxsesof injustice or oppression. .-.Ie -also held ie dfice of Coroner for many years ail wasa 'ood oflicer. In all thbW relations of. lifei Capt. Aznnuorwas exemplary and- fiithfiul. H le lived morc:than thirty years in~ the towvn where he died, and cominmaded universal confidence attd esteem. Hie was remiarkaly useful in the .comn mtunity ; manny survive ia i ho rememtber with itratituide his kindntess and good counisel. In hiya the cause oif mioratlity, go~od order and. -education ahvays founmd a frnend: lie amassed a cnsidera ble fortune by his prudence and industry, attd his honse was the abode of a generous htospitality. In 1831, Capt. ADDISOs, uinted himself wlihi the asptist Church of this place, of wtihi lhe re:m ed mt active and corisistent. member .until his death. In all theyeasu~es of the Ch'urch for proimting thie causo of virtue, he took-a prnmi. nent-anud liberal part. . --Hikremainis were interrdo the Salba morning after his-death,in thte bury' .groundo the Baptist Church, anid the vreauconcour of our eitizents wiih folU&*el AI retmaits tb the tomb, evinced thiec-stilamation, in whuibh hi was held by his neighblors and the c.omunihit generally.

Tic has left a bereaved widow and chtidren and a largo circle of friends to -mourn his. loss. And reat as is that loss to thetm, thteir grief, it is hoped, will be soothed, by the consolations of that religion, which supported him in lifeand in death, ad the joys of which he-is jtow sharing ini purer region above.
